Hi
When trying to send a report as an attachment, the database freezes..
I have tried using code to do a simple
sendobject but the same thing happened.
I would like to send the report as an html attachment.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thx
Darin
 
What report? Are you converting it to .pdf or .snp first?

If i'm viewing a report, i click on file, send as attachment, it opens my e-mail with the attachment, and can be sent but then my database freezes...

Gotcha! Never used that feature; we convert to Acrobat or snapshot & attach manually. If it is a really large attachment, it could be problematic.

I tried saving (exporting) as a snapshot, that worked fine.. However, I would prefer as word or html...
when I do that, the computer freezes and I am still able to close the report window, but my employee is frozen..

It says at bottom

Calculating and at the right, FLTR...

I assume some code is trying to run...
If I used the sendobject method, it still did the same, how do i get the code to stop calculating?

Thx

Ctrl + brk will manually stop it.
